Volume 1 - Ouroboros and Black Iris Chapter 15: The Demon Hunting Squad of Memories in Xiaozun(1/2)

Semule Kingdom Xiaozun Town

As the sky just broke, Elize had already changed her clothes neatly, and before that she also enjoyed a morning bath. She stood by the window, not because she could see the sunrise from this direction, but because she could see the sunrise from this direction.

There was a refreshing feeling. She unlocked the window, pushed it open as if embracing nature, and breathed in the fresh air with enjoyment. The morning air in the town was much better than she had imagined. If she could, she would even stay

Staying in such a harmonious and leisurely town is not impossible, but she still has many tasks on her shoulders. She can't just run away and enjoy the happiness. And this time she comes to Xiaozun, it is not a tourist trip.

Sightseeing, or something that comes from embracing nature.

"I wonder how long this beautiful mood in the morning can last?"

Eliz was a little worried and said that this idea was not unreasonable. They and their group were originally here to defeat an extremely dangerous monster, but several days have passed and the monster still has not been found. It is not that looking for the monster is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

, because Elize has a special physique, she can sense the presence of heavy objects around her and their general strength. But when she brought the people on the journey to the West Peak and the demon hunters of the Semule Kingdom to form a ten-person team here,

But she didn't know what tricks the monster used, and she couldn't sense its existence. When she thought about her failure, Eliz couldn't help but recall a certain arrogant man who mocked herself every day and shouted to go back.

"Half of the good mood of the day was ruined."

Although she said so, her natural smile remained unchanged. It seemed that she was just complaining about that "arrogant man". Of course, Elize would not let that person get what he wanted, even if she had already sensed it.

The existence of the monster no longer exists, but it does not mean that it has really disappeared. Moreover, the target monster of this mission is extremely dangerous. If left unchecked, it will definitely cause a disaster. So after discussion, the group of them decided to stay in the hotel temporarily.

, living a daily life of searching here and there every day. It sounds like a tiring job, but in fact they live a very leisurely life every day, enjoying the leisure that they cannot experience in daily life.

"Let's get started today."

As soon as Elize opened the door to the room, she happened to meet a female witcher who was traveling with her as she passed by the door, seemingly planning to go back to the room with her.

"Good morning, Sister Aya."

Elize said hello, and the woman named "Aya" turned her head and said the same greeting:

"Good morning, little Liz, did you get up so early today too?"

"No, no, no, sister Aya, you got up early. Did you just go out for a run?"

Although Elize is not a very careful observer, she can still reason a little. But after all, with such a long towel hanging on the back of the neck, even a fool can understand it after a little thought.

"Well, I go out and run two or three kilometers every morning, and then I take a shower."

Aya responded, and the subtext was that she was going to take a shower next. So Eliz didn't intend to drag her anymore, but waved her hand energetically and walked downstairs.

"Do you go there every day? Why haven't you met me in the past few days?"

Elize was a little confused, feeling that what Aya said was inconsistent with her actual situation, but it might just be a mismatch.

"Don't think about useless things."

Elize said to herself in her heart, and then she patted her soft cheek with her hand, and the delicate and white skin bounced softly. This was to get rid of the useless thoughts in her heart and let herself concentrate on finding the monster. She walked down.

On the third floor, she found that there was no one in the lobby. They probably hadn't gotten up yet or were out playing. But she felt that most people were leaning towards the former. After all, most places in the town were closed during this time.

It's not open yet.

"Oh, if this continues, we will find the Year of the Monkey, the Horse and the Moon..."

It's not that Elize doesn't like staying here, it's just that she feels a little tired of her temporary "unity" team. Most of the people in the team like to do their own thing, and they just do their own thing and mess around.

I didn't know if they were really looking for me or not.

"Take that guy with you."

Elize thought to herself and walked up the stairs again. Her target was the arrogant man who lived on the second floor - Chris Yoo. It's not that it was necessary to take him with him, but it was indeed necessary.

. It’s not for anything else, it’s just that Eliz didn’t want him to run around and no one would come back in the end. She knew this person and knew that this was his common trick. Eliz walked to the door of the fourth room.

Knocked on the door. After waiting for a while, she found no one responded, so she took out the key to Yangao's room that she had always kept. (She was afraid that this person would sneak out at night, so she reached an agreement - unilaterally.

Ask Yangao to give her the key for safekeeping)

Elize inserted the key into the keyhole, turned it once, and then pushed the door open. But she was shocked to find something in the room: the bed was neatly made, but there was no one around. The window was wide open, and the curtains were open.

Swaying slowly in the breeze.

"This guy really likes to surprise people..."

Elize gritted her teeth and said, and immediately took out her mobile phone and dialed Yangao's number, but the ring tone only rang twice before the other party picked up the phone.

"Where did he go?

Elize's voice was surprisingly calm, but a woman's extreme calmness was a precursor to the coming storm. However, the other party had little experience (in terms of women), so naturally she would not understand what kind of crisis warning was hidden underneath.

"I'm going to find that monster."

The other party seemed to have a valid reason. No wonder he answered the call so quickly, and no wonder he escaped directly through the window. It seemed that he was well prepared.

"Oh~ We have always only played Chris and Yangao, do you actually know how to help me share the hard work?"

Obviously, what Elize said was ironic. But at this time, he could only bite the bullet and continue, and the other party was still a scoundrel like Yang Ao. Maybe he had no intention of forcing the bullet at all, and was just saying what he thought.

"Ah, I found something interesting. I'll hang up now."

However, Yangao chose to ignore Eliz's words and instead planned to end the topic. And before Eliz could get angry, he hung up the phone first.

"..This...forget it..."

Seeing that the other party hung up the phone first, Elize gave up and continued to ask questions. After all, she was too familiar with this person. Even if you reason with him, he will not listen to your reason. He will only accept his own ideas.

Thinking that he wouldn't be able to be called back anyway, Eliz planned to give him a "vacation" today. Others were playing these days, and it really felt a bit unfair to let this child-like arrogant restrain himself.

"I'm the only one today...Sigh, as expected, my mood started to show cracks from the arrogant one."

Elize sighed, originally she didn't plan to have breakfast, but after this happened, she felt that it would be impossible not to have breakfast to replenish energy. The girl picked up her phone and looked at the time, it was just 6: 10, the hotel provided

Her breakfast is at 6: 40, which means there is still half an hour. However, it is so early that other shops outside are probably not open yet. In other words, she must find a way to kill this half hour of free time.

"Let's do a little cleaning."

Of course, the cleaning Elize was talking about was not helping Yang Ao clean the room. It was better to leave these matters to the hotel's cleaning staff. She walked straight to Yang Ao's bed and pulled out a one-meter-long suitcase from under the bed.

It didn't look like a box for carrying clothes. Eliz sat cross-legged on the ground and opened the box. Handkerchiefs, mineral water, antioxidant detergent, etc. were neatly placed on one side of the box, and there was even a whetstone.

There were three long columnar objects of different lengths on the other side. They were tightly wrapped in white cotton, and it was impossible to see what was inside. But judging from their shapes, they should be three tachi swords. She took

After taking out the first knife, I unwrapped the white cloth. The shiny blade seemed to require no maintenance. Indeed, the demon knife does not need to be cleaned, will not oxidize, and naturally does not need to be polished.

But these prepared props are like personal entertainment items. Although they have no effect on the demon sword itself, they still need to be used for adjustments. Cleaning the demon sword is like cultivating a bond with your own pet, which can strengthen the user's relationship with the sword.

The connection between the hearts. However, Yangao, except for the few knives he uses most frequently, are basically cleaned by Elize for him. Of the three in the box, only Elize cleans them.

The one above is the one he uses least often. Of course, in addition to the three here, Yoo also has a knife that Isshin carries with him. It should be regarded as his most commonly used knife, but it is not clear whether it is his favorite knife.

Elize took out the handkerchief on the side, first tried to pour some water on it, and then added some detergent. She picked up the tachi that had been "coldly treated" by Yoo, and started from a position close to the knife grid.

Wipe upwards, and there are some water stains on the wiped area. This knife is about 80 centimeters long. Although it is the standard length of a tachi, it is still the longest among the three knives. The blade is close to the hand.

The position is greatly curved, the blade is wide near the root, and narrows sharply near the front. This shape is a typical characteristic of Semule's Heian period swords. The blade is crescent-shaped, and there is no inscription on the side.

From this point of view, this should be Mikazuki Munechika. Of course, this cannot be the authentic one, but a sword made by "Muramasa" that looks like a demon sword and is named Mikazuki Munechika. After all, it is authentic.

It is still preserved in the National Museum.

After Elize finished cleaning, she found that she still had a lot of time, so she also cleaned the other two knives. After she packed her things, she was ready to leave the room. She opened the door and just half of her body leaned out.

However, she saw another member of the team just passing in front of her. Their eyes met and they looked at each other. Then the person pretended not to notice and walked towards the corner with a provocative expression.

"...Mr. Makimura."

Elize felt that not saying hello was not good, but she didn't know what to say. And if she hurriedly explained, it would make her feel worse, especially for someone as unruly as Makimura.

"Oh, isn't this little Liz?"

Everyone in the team calls her Little Liz, maybe because she is the youngest, but the concept of "team" does not include that person. Iriz feels that Makimura's aura is a bit weird, but she can't put it in words, as always

The expression is relaxed and casual, and the tone is as flirtatious as ever. But I can't tell for sure, maybe this is a woman's sixth sense.

"Would you like to get up and eat?"

Elize planned to change the subject and immediately made this suggestion.

"Oh, I don't plan to eat, I have to go out.

Makimura replied, seeing that Eliz was a little confused, he added:

"Remember the grocery store next to the school yesterday? There was something in it that I was interested in."

"Then there's no need to skip breakfast, right?"

After Elize said that, she felt that she was a little nosy, but the other party still explained:

"Humans, once you have something you want urgently, you can't bear it any longer."

After saying these words that seemed to cover philosophical thoughts, Makimura turned around and walked downstairs while waving his hands. Elize was a little confused and didn't know what could arouse Makimura's such strong interest. But he had to stand here.

There was no answer, and he didn't seem willing to tell Eliz just now. So Eliz, who no longer thought about it, decided to go downstairs to have breakfast first to replenish his energy before completing today's goal.

"Morning~ Little Liz, I didn't get up late."

Elize took two steps, and a familiar voice sounded behind him. It seemed that his teammates were all waking up one after another.

"Good morning, Yuan-kun, it's just time for breakfast. Later.

In fact, the age difference between the other party and Elize is very small, but everyone calls him Little Liz, and he is naturally used to it.
